Parameter values of type int should also work with type float

[siliconlad]

When calling LoadGPTEnabled, I have a situation where I'm passing 2 into a parameter of type float and it errors out when validating the type.

Perhaps an extra flag like coerce_type or something.

The first fix that comes to mind is (in type_schema.py:142):

class ValueTypeSchema(TypeSchema):
    # ...

    def validate(self, value) -> bool:
        try:
            self.type(value)
            return True # Return true if the value can be converted to the type
        except ValueError:
            return False

But this might be too permissive. For example, I think every value can be converted to boolean.

Otherwise we could have a special case for float and int:

def validate(self, value) -> bool:
    return (self.type is float and type(value) is int) or self.type == type(value)

But this might not work in other cases, if there are any. It depends on Python rules for implicit conversion. Reading online I did not find any other cases of implicit cast, so the special check might not be that bad.

Allowing implicit conversion from int to float looks good to me.
